Lincoln Continental Mark VI VI Givenchy Edition 1981

Allmän beskrivning : 22,082 actual mile Givenchy Edition Mark VI 5.0L V8 Automatic A/C Loaded ///
An extremely special treat for Lincoln gurus, this classy full-size is an extremely well-preserved time capsule that's only covered 22,082 miles in its lifetime. If you've been on the lookout for a collectible Lincoln that is both largely originally and decidedly unique, you'll have a hard time finding one cooler than this! From 1980 through 1983, Lincoln offered luxurious designer packages on the already extravagant 2 door Mark VI. They collaborated with 4 luxury fashion designers to create 4 of the most extravagant land-yachts in history. One of the 4 was French designer Givenchy, who styled celebrities such as: Audrey Hepburn, Jackie Kennedy and, more recently, Beyonce Knowles and Lady Gaga. The Givenchy edition was one of the most tasteful designs of the available packages and was only available for the 1981 and 1982 model years.
BODYWORK/TRIM
Early '80s metal featured some of the most ornate styling from the infamous Malaise Era. This coupe's classic combination of Black and Grey paint proves the perfect canvas for far-flung detail. The car's untraditional, 2-tone pigment is decidedly stylish, proving that variety is the spice of life. With that paint comes vast sheetmetal, which, thanks to decades of great maintenance, appears straight, clean and almost as crisp as the day Motor City stamped it. That solid fuselage lines up beautifully, featuring wide doors, which open and close with ease. Spears of garnet and gold pin stripes stretch 18 feet down the sides of one of the longest profiles ever built. And overall, this Lincoln's looks defy the decades its VIN suggests.
Speaking of fit and finish, everything on this incredible Detroit creation is exceptionally well planned. And the car carries just the right amount of ostentatiousness to make an impassioned first impression. At the front of its massive body, a broad bumper frames folding, 'Continental' branded headlights and a 'MARK VI' branded grille that's centered on a sharp Lincoln gun sight. A characteristically linear profile complements intricate parking lamps, massive fender vents and original Ford cornering lamps with optional door guards, monochromatic bodyside molding and polished rocker guards. A stainless-trimmed greenhouse floats an optional Carriage Roof above traditional door handles, classy mirrors and a power antenna. And out back, a second broad bumper frames spotless taillights and a fully dressed Continental decklid.
ENGINE
Motivation for this 4,800-pound luxury cruiser is provided by Ford's 5.0L V8. Believed to be largely original, the massive engine bay is in great condition throughout, featuring many correct components and factory markings. All major service items are functional, including factory air conditioning. The big mill still reflects splotches of bright Ford Blue engine skin. The car's Satin Black fenders are clean, its firewall straight, and all the places you'd expect rust to hide are resoundingly solid.
DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION
Bottom-side, this Continental is equipped with Ford's reliable and sturdy 4-speed automatic transmission, which drives a 9-inch axle and highway-friendly gears. That powertrain hangs in a heavy-duty suspension, with new shocks and rear airbags, which mixes newly-refreshed disc brakes with requisite power steering. Exhaust is handled by factory-spec pipes, which fame a Ford-branded muffler. Like the car's engine bay, that undercarriage is clean, honest and certainly not afraid of wet weather. And everything rolls on stylish alloy turbines, which spin 205/75R15 Hankook Optimo whitewalls around gold-stamped center caps.
INTERIOR
Decked in creme leather, the Givenchy-themed interior is just as cool as the rest of the car, wrapping minimal wear in exquisite luxury. Plush seats are nicely padded pieces that feel every bit as supple as they look. In front of those mitts, a wood-trimmed dash hangs an optional CB radio, an optional Quadrasonic AM/FM/cassette player and a cool digital information center amid factory climate control. At the sides of that ledge, leather-trimmed door panels frame an array of chrome power accessory switches. And in front of the driver, an attractive steering wheel highlights factory cruise control.
OUR SALE INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING DOCUMENTATION
* Owner's Manual * Multiple related booklets * Original Extended Service Plan Card
Now that they're over the AACA's 25-year age limit, '80s luxury cars are becoming increasingly popular as both show queens and road kings. These days, it seems everyone wants a high-strung curve carver, making this Continental's superlative road manners, full-size comfort and smooth V8 the fruits of a bygone era. There simply can't be many Malaise Era cruisers that are more interesting than this dauntless beast. And since the car is a designer Lincoln, it's certainly the cream of the crop. If you're looking for a cool classic that's also tastefully unique, this opulent coupe will not disappoint!

om Lincoln

Lincoln, ofta betraktat som mer än bara en lyxigare variant av Ford, har skapat sin egen nisch i bilvärlden med en rik historia och en uppsättning distinkta modeller. Låt oss ta en promenad ner längs minnesgatan i Lincolns historia.

Tidiga början:

Grundat år 1917 av Henry Leland, mannen bakom Cadillac-märket, började Lincoln ursprungligen som ett lyxbilföretag. Märket fick snabbt rykte om sig för sitt högkvalitativa hantverk och uppmärksamhet för detaljer.

Ford-eran:

År 1922 förvärvades Lincoln av Ford Motor Company, och det markerade början på ett långt samarbete. Ford ville positionera Lincoln som sin lyxdivision och konkurrera med andra prestigefyllda varumärken på marknaden.

Klassiska modeller:

Genom åren har Lincoln introducerat flera ikoniska modeller som har lämnat ett varaktigt intryck på bilvärlden:

Lincoln Continental: Lanserad på 1940-talet blev Continental omedelbart en klassiker. Dess eleganta design och ikoniska självmördardörrar gjorde den till en symbol för lyx och sofistikering.
Lincoln Town Car: Introducerad på 1980-talet blev Town Car synonymt med chaufförsdriven lyx. Dess rymliga interiör och behagliga åktur gjorde den till en favorit bland företagsledare och dignitärer.
Lincoln Navigator: Sent på 90-talet såg vi en ökande popularitet för SUV:er, och Lincoln svarade snabbt med Navigator. En fullstor lyx-SUV kombinerade Navigator praktiskt användande med lyx och blev ett populärt val bland förmögna familjer.
